Makers by Cory Doctorow
In a near-future America transformed by disruptive tech and economic upheaval, two garage inventors ignite a movement of DIY manufacturing and micro-enterprises that a tech journalist chronicles as it evolves into a living, ever-changing theme-park museum. Their grassroots innovation clashes with corporate interests, intellectual property battles, and relentless boom-and-bust cycles, straining friendships and communities while questioning who owns ideas and what the future of work looks like.
